So this week I read Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi, and the beautiful boy in this book is Adam Kent, the guy who currently has his arms wrapped around my heart. Kent has gone to extreme lengths to seek out the girl he thought he lost a long time ago and is willing to do whatever it takes to break her out of the hell she finds herself trapped in now. He sees the MC for everything she is and loves her deeply. You couldn't ask for a better boyfriend, fictional or otherwise!
Adam Kent
- "Blue blue blue" eyes
- missing eyebrow ring
- dark brown hair
- sharp jawline
- strong, lean frame
- is a solider
- has a tattoo across his chest
- has a younger brother
He laughs again, this time a hard, heavy sort of laugh. He's staring at a point directly past my shoulder. "You never asked for anything from anyone." He finally meets my eyes. "But no one ever gave you a chance."
I swallow hard, try to look away but he catches my face.
He whispers, "You have no idea how much I've thought about you. How many times I've dreamt" - he takes a tight breath - "how many times I've dreamt about being this close to you." He moves to run a hand through his hair before he changes his mind. Looks down. Looks up. "God, Juliette, I'd follow you anywhere. You're the only good thing left in this world."
- Shatter Me
I couldn't find the exact guy I'd found in my head, but I thought Jeremy Sumpter, in this shot, was a pretty close pick.
My Book Boyfriend is hosted by Missie at The Unread Reader, and it's a weekly meme in which you choose a fictional boy that makes your heart all gooey and write up a post for him. For more information, check out the introduction post. For sign ups and Missie's choice this week click here.
What fictional male can't you live without this week?

Wow what a swoon worthy quote! I was totally pulled in! I haven't read the book but I have been dying too!
Check Out My Book Boyfriend!
ADAM I LOVE YOU!!!! Was that too much creepy enthusiasm for a fictional character? Maybe:) I can't wait to read more of him in the next book, fantastic book boyfriend this week Asher!
Oh, even though I kind of fell for the bad guy in this story (I know, I know, how could I?), there were some great scenes between Adam and Juliette. I enjoyed all their moments together... and this guy knows what to say to make you love him ;))
Happy midnight reading!
Oh, Adam! I want an Adam! The scenes between him and Juliette were AWESOME. And I loved how he cared for his little brother! So adorable.
I'm loving Peter Pan all grown up.
I loved this book! Adam was a fabulous hero and I can't wait to read more about him and Juliette. Love the picture and quote you chose as well!
Asher! What are you doing to me? I'm now kicking myself for not having read Shatter Me yet. I've heard amazing things about the book, but now I need to read it so I can meet Adam!
I have this in my que already! YAY looks good!
Aww. Cute post :D I love love love love Adam. <3 He is amazing. Wish I had someone just like him. Hih (A) I am really excited about the next Shatter Me books :)
Love, Carina
Oh, and also, I am re-reading The Scorpio Races this week. <3 Although I read it only a few weeks ago (A) But, well, I cannot live without Sean. He is awesome :)
OH MY GOSH, ASHER!!! I seriously want to hug you right now -- I LOVE ADAM!! :) <3 And maybe there isn't a male model on earth who can live up to a girl's fantasy book boy, but I agree with you 100% when you say that this guy comes pretty close! ;)
You definitely know how to pick them, Asher!! :)
Thank you for the comment!
Hope you have an amazing week of reading too!

I will be reading this one soon I just got it recently and can't wait to fall in love with a new book boyfriend :) Thanks for stopping by and you should definitely try the Fins series!
I never managed to finish this one (because of dead-lines, not that it was bad!) but I'm sure I'd agree with you! Lol, I almost do already. ;) Can't wait to get back to it!
Uuuh... I think you might have to share him :P
Oh my goodness, I <3 that photo!
Also! I think our cats are twins! But maybe yours is the good one, because mine is TOTALLY evil. I loves her anyway--it makes her enormously entertaining XD
Oh my! I´m so curious about Shatter Me and I´ve heard great things about it! And this quote?! I´m adding this book to my Wish List RIGHT NOW! Great choice!:)
I did not know this meme existed! I simply adored SHATTER ME! I WILL participate in this next week. I have a different guy in mind for Adam :)
I am a new follower.

I just finished reading Shatter Me about two hours ago! LOL And yes, Adam Kent would be a wonderful boyfriend *swoon*
Thanks for stopping by my blog today =)
I LOVED Shatter Me! It was definitely one of my favorite reads of the year and Adam one of my favorite book boyfriends! I cannot wait for the next book now partly because I can't get enough of Adam. :)
I haven´t read Shatter Me. :(
Interesting post. I've actually yet to read Shatter Me but have heard so many great things about it already, and hopefully I'll get a copy soon.
Thanks for stopping by :)

I can't get over how hot Jeremy Sumpter is now. It's kinda freaky. But good. I have Shatter Me in my TBR pile, I must get to it soon!
Nice articles. I'm just blogwalking and very happy to stop here. And also give you some comment and following your blog here.
Dont forget to give us some your comment into my blog and following me back too.
I love this post! Shatter Me is one of my favorite books this year. I love Adam, he is just too sweet and gorgeous!
OMG I totally love this meme!! OMG OMG! Where have I been living since now?! Aaaaaaaa it's great! :) Ohh Asher thanks so much for shering! :) :) I am a happy person now!! :D (ok, not that I'm not a happy person in general, BUT this is just super amazing)! yeeeeey :)
Holy crap! I need to read Shatter Me. Adam's a dreamboat!
LOL I love it!! monthly book boyfriend = awesome. And fantastic choice this month ;)
My copy of Shatter Me arrived yesterday at our local bookstore, and I'm about to pick up the book today! Yay yay! That boy sounds like a swoon-worthy one.. I can't wait to meet him!
Uhhh I think he looks pretty good to me ^_^ Adam was definitely a very swoonworthy character!
Niceeeee choice. Love Adam!
I really need to read Shatter Me since everyone's been telling me how great it is.
Hook. Line. Sinker. Love the scene. Must own. XD
Love Shatter Me!! He's not exactly how I pictured Adam, but very nice. I've actually seen a Team Adam button, but can't remember where. I need to find that....*ponders*
Oooooh I love(!!!) Adam. If he was real I would probably try to steal him from Juliette (although I'm not really that kind of person). From the moment I found out the truth about him I fell in love with him. And the description of him from Juliette is perfect.
Great pick :)

OMG! Who could resist Adam Kent? I was half dreaming of a guy like him in real life xD I'm totally drooling over Jeremy Sumpter... he's not my Adam but I like his eyes ;)
Jay @ We Fancy Books

I feel like I'm part of a minority here(cause I haven't read it)
Krazyyme @ Young Readers
I LIKE THIS POST. I LIKE THIS POST LOTS. AND I LIKE ADAM. I LIKE ADAM LOTS.
